DBS received a call that a home was cold and the homeowners said it was from a wet, cold crawl space. The homeowners said that it was dirty and needed an upgrade, so DBS went to see what a solution was. We saw that the crawl space needed an updated sump pump, so we installed our SuperSump® Premier Pump System, and we also installed some insulation foaming, as well as a drainage mat to make sure the water coming inside, was going back outside. Our final touch was to add a mat on the ground to finish the crawl space, keep dirt away from all these products, and create a clean atmosphere.

This homeowner in Two Harbors, MN had been experiencing uncomfortable conditions in their home for years. An unsealed crawl space beneath the home was pooling with water, causing humid air to enter the home in the summer months and cold air during winter months. 

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate for a total crawl space encapsulation. After the inspection, he recommended a CleanSpace® vapor barrier as well as sump pump in the space.

DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey was the foreman on the job. He and his production crew excavated a layer of soil in the crawl space before installing our encapsulation system. This consisted of drainage matting, CleanSpace® vapor barrier, and a SmartSump™ sump pump. This crawl space drainage system is specially designed for crawl spaces. It has a lower profile than other pump packages, making installation in tight quarters easier.
